Bwahahahaha. Would've thought you'd need a team in that country to be a nat coach, but whatever. Unlucky for Pakistan I guess.

Just had a read through the Pakistan threads and it looks like he did a lot of ground work before applying. Unlike most overseas manager who just apply without ever posting in the National Threads. Most the Pakistan managers see him as token Pakistani it seems. Either he pulled a big one over their eyes or his keen. His actually running a "Project Pakistan" program to try and help Pakistan win the U19 WC. Not as well organised as the one Sri Lanka's U19 managers is doing with a couple other but atleast he's trying.

Tell Tharmi that Project Pakistan has been mainly organised behind closed doors thus it looks a bit messier than Sri Lanka's program atm. They only have a pool of about 13 players we have a pool of 25 ....

Probably should get on MSN rather then make SP some postman. But only the 17yo SL players have been put out in the open. When you include 18yo the pool is about 30 odd players for our "Misson Impossible"

Somewhat embarrassingly, and despite purchasing a prof/resp backup bowler last night for leg-crossingly painful sums of money, this pop still makes Piercy my fifth best bowler. Ah well, at least my first XI now has all resp+ primaries.
